Baseline Survey in DeogharNov-Dec. 2008
• Baseline survey conducted prior to Vistaar TA - To obtain knowledge and practices of ANMs on pregnancy, labour, delivery and newborn care
• Sample: 69 untrained ANMs & 69 Health Sub Centres (HSC)
![Page 6: Skilled Birth Attendance: Successful Strategies and Lessons Learned from Deoghar district in Jharkhand, India Dr Manju Shukla, State Director, Jharkhand.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649dc05503460f94ab42f0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Baseline Findings
• SBA as a job responsibility – Not a top Priority
• Record keeping on different services – Poor
• Knowledge of complications of pregnancy & delivery - Limited
• Awareness about essential newborn care services – Reasonable
• Supervisory support received – Limited
• Readiness of HSCs (infrastructure and drugs for SBA) – Fall short
Overall ANMs lacked in the knowledge & skills required for SBA and facilities also fell short

HSCs
• Erratic supplies
